Mishawaka-based Champion Martial Arts and its owner, Jonathan Stowe, face a civil lawsuit from the attorney general's office alleging the company deceived and misled customers into long-term memberships.
Fourteen customers are named in the lawsuit stating that Champion offered free 30-day trial memberships but pressured customers into signing long-term contracts that had misleading cancellation terms.
An attorney general investigation into the 14 complaints the office received revealed that contract amounts ranged from $99 to as much as $7,000.
Many consumers also were required to pay a separate enrollment fee ranging anywhere from $49 to $149.
